Special Event at Dubois Branch Library

Dubois- Every business starts with a dream. Turning that dream into a reality requires confidence, grit, and knowledge. On September 16th from 12:00PM to 1:00PM, the Dubois Branch Library will host the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) Indiana District Office for a free workshop on starting a business. Lindsay Maliqi, the daughter of a Dubois County native, will walk attendees through 10 basic steps covering the planning process, financial decisions, and legal activities necessary to turn an idea or hobby into a business.  Participants will learn what resources and funding options are available, and the reality about grants.  

There will be up to an hour long question and answer period at the end of the presentation.  Wherever you are in growing your small business, the SBA has your back. Created in 1953, this cabinet-level federal agency provides counseling, capital, and contracting resources to help small businesses start, grow, expand, and recover. 

Registration is necessary by September 14. Call the library at 812-678-2548 or go on-line to www.jdcpl.us and use the Calendar.  Lindsay will then be available for a few one-on-one, 30 minute appointments until 4 p.m. that you can set up by calling the Dubois Branch Library and requesting a time slot. The library is located at 5506 E Main St. Dubois, IN.
